> My dr is reluctant to put me up to 100mg Pristiq based on the studies that 50mg is more effective and 100mg the very top dose.
I know real people for whom 100 mg/day is necessary in order to sustain full remission. Drug companies sometimes low-ball recommended dosages in order to demonstrate reduced side effects.
> I really think it is the NE for me that makes the difference but Wellbutrin didn't work for me at all, I tried it twice. High doses of Effexor worked well for me in the past. So far Pristiq is "smoother" than effexor, less side effects, and it IS working but not quite well enough.
Yes. Several people have characterized Pristiq as being superior to Effexor in the ways you describe.
